[Iatrogenic Cushing's syndrome in a patient with complex angiomatosis. Description of a case].
Hemangiomas present to physicians with some of the most difficult treatment problems known to medicine. Many modalities are available but all suffer some degree of complications. The Authors describe a case of Cushing's syndrome after steroid therapy of serious capillary-cavernous hemangiomas. This experience points out treatment problems and need of team management.
